The other cancer among 1-6 year olds is Lymphoid leukaemia (C91), where number of diagnoses among 1-6 year olds is up 20 times since 2020. 16/x

Malignant neoplasms (C00-C97): two types of cancers exist among 1-6 year olds: first, brain cancer (C71), where number of diagnoses grew significantly until 2024. No diagnoses this year (so far). 15/x

Malignant neoplasms (C00-C97): number of diagnoses is up year-on-year in all age groups below 50. 1/x

I have never seen such a level of incompetence on display in the first 15 minutes of this ACIP day 2 meeting. It’s mind boggling how dumb these people are. They literally do not understand anything they are talking about. This is gonna piss me off. I don’t know how I’m going to make it through

2-2 The virus is making the entire world dumber with each and every infection. Get vaccinated and wear a respirator. The pandemic isn't close to being over. www.nejm.org/doi/full/10....

How long until I'm disappeared?

In case you were wondering, yes, the Trump administration and Elon Musk were accused of interference in the lead up phase to the final election. Russia, Trump, Musk, extremists on one side, Europe, NATO, moderates, and stable democracy on the other. www.euractiv.com/section/poli...

My favorite one so far.

Systematic Dismantling of Covid Protections - March to April 2025 youtu.be/Vnsk-Oywkkg

Harvard has some of the best scientists inventing new ways to early detect and cure cancer. But Trump’s ICE locks them in a detention center— for 2 months!

#RealHeroes against #Fascism, #USA.

Exactly this👇

To clarify, all my images are how they are seen in the microscope; there is no manipulation. The color selection is arbitrary, but that's about it. They are also all acquired in 3D, and properly analyzed and quantified for data extraction. I use a Zeiss LSM800 microscope and Imaris Software.

How does #COVID impact the brain? From bench to bedside, my presentation with @davidjoffe64.bsky.social for the @thewhn.bsky.social is available on YouTube now: youtube.com/watch?v=soJX... #NeuroCovid #LongCovid

I am very touched to be featured in the 'scientist spotlight' for this month's issue of Kid's Zone COVID magazine! This is such an important initiative for kids and families with #LongCOVID to feel less isolated. Check March's issue here: whn.global/KidsZone/ #LongCovidKids

Prasad already gave up the game. Jay's gonna direct taxpayer money to his crank friends to write worthless op-eds rallying against disease mitigations masquerading as official NIH scientific papers

Last weekend I spent a number of hours dealing with a bacterial meningitis case at the hospital. This weekend, I've spent a number of hours dealing with a number of lies from the White House. icemsg.org/lies/the-tru...

This battle between Harvard and the administration is so befuddling. The latest plot twist just doesn’t make any sense. Let me give a very quick summary for those not following along. 1/

Fact check on Trump's Covid Lab Leak claims. Thanks to Adam Kurcharski, a professor at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

Getting #measles doesn’t confer benefits on the immune system — in fact, it’s just the opposite. Even a mild case of measles destroys the memory cells that confer resistance to infections the patient has previously fought--called immune amnesia. www.latimes.com/science/stor...

Being a scientist in the U.S. is awful right now, so I will celebrate any small victories I can! As the Senior Scientist in the Lab of the President of SfN.org, I get the chance to prepare some of the images for this year's meeting, and I'm excited! 🤓 Happy #FluorescenceFriday! 🇺🇦 @sfn.org

“A positive test for COVID-19 was associated with increased rates of diagnosis of various infections in the 12 months following an acute SARS-CoV-2 infection.” www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

"Twenty-one percent of Americans still think of the disease as “a major threat” to public health, according to a recent poll from Pew Research Center. Thirty-nine percent say we’re not “taking it seriously enough.” #covid #covid19 #LongCovid www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Finally an institution not rolling over. Maybe.

Sean @drseanmullen.bsky.social made a cool shirt to bring awareness about #Covid, I never thought I was going to see my microscopy in a shirt! All profit goes to support Long Covid Families (longcovidfamilies.org/about/). #LongCovid

This doesn't look good, folks www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Babushka Visits: Resistance and Bingo Games

Wow! Thank you @daniellebeckman.bsky.social, @davidjoffe64.bsky.social , & @thewhn.bsky.social for this brilliant session on #LongCovid! The more I learn about the impacts of SARS CoV 2, the more I become committed to protecting my little human & avoiding infection, while advocating for clean air.

Science has abundant evidence that shows clearly that SARS-CoV2 is a persistent virus that damages systems and organs in your body, including your immune, cardiovascular and nervous systems. There is growing evidence that it is oncogenic. Keep getting infected. Keep it up...

Pretty good turnout in the anti-Musk protests in Indianapolis, Indiana today. It's great to hear so many people honking and showing support as they drive by

At NIH, new fudging opportunities (NOFO) will need to be approved by DOGE. That should be a NOGO. www.science.org/content/arti...

🚨: RECOVER grants for Long COVID pathobiology studies were rescinded under a new NIH directive this week. "...there’s going to be an opportunity cost which will reverberate for generations" one pediatric Long COVID researcher told @thesicktimes.bsky.social thesicktimes.org/2025/03/27/r...

Shocking.

📍Welp—The National Security Agency (NSA) sent out a security special bulletin in February 2025 warning of vulnerabilities in using the encrypted messaging application Signal, according to internal NSA documents obtained by CBS News. www.cbsnews.com/news/nsa-sig...

Now the NIH, NIAID ...... "Other terminated grants involved research to develop improved COVID-19 vaccines and to address Long Covid" www.science.org/content/arti...
